Thanks, they still get called pickups/trucks over here. Another name for our lorry's is 'artics' as in articulated lorry haha not as cool as 18 wheeler or big rig!!

Thankyou very much

Ahaha good question, well my dad is gardener by trade so he cuts hedges and stuff like that, but when he don't need to use he just chucks it under the landy instead of lugging round the house to the garden haha!! There, happy now?!!

Changed the rocker cover gasket. Well impressed with the cam. 113,000 on it with no signs of wear. The timing chain is mint an all!!





At the watering hole

I should probably update this thread...

Well I finally got my drivers licence so now I can get drive my pride and joy!! Absolutely love her!! Tooker her off roading this past weekend so here's some pictures













Around christmas time I rebuilt my front axle using heavy duty ashcroft half shafts, cv joints and drive flanges. Which was very expensive but gaunteed for life

Haven't done much for modifications lately other than installing some italian light gaurds for the rear.

Got some big plans but need more money

Thanks for looking everyone

[pobrockcrawler]

Oh yeah, forgot to mention that I made ab rc version of her!!







Thanks peeps
